General waste collection Bournemouth

From April 2017 Bournemouth Council decided to cease weekly household rubbish collections and moved them to bi-weekly. As a result, residents of Bournemouth are experiencing a maggot problem manifested by leakages from food bags and food rotting in the sweltering heat and staying stagnant for 2 whole weeks in most cases.

Given the choice residents would not have opted for bi weekly bin collections especially over the summer. We would like the council to revert back to weekly collections during the summer months.
